About Course
Almost everyone at the office now uses AI. Often without agreements, without knowing where the information comes from, and without thinking about which data ends up in such a tool. Since 2 February 2025, Article 4 of the EU AI Act has required organisations to take measures that support the AI literacy of everyone who works with AI. Since 27 July 2026, it has also stated explicitly that no level has to be guaranteed for each employee. The law prescribes no format, no number of hours and no certificate. What does count is that you can show what you have done.
This essentials course gives you the core in about two hours. You learn what AI is and why a language model can make up facts, and for which tasks AI is and is not reliable. You learn how to build a prompt and how to assess output before you use it. You also learn what the GDPR and the AI Act require of you, what goes wrong in practice and what to do when it does, and which agreements you need at work. Beginner level, vendor-neutral and suitable for anyone who deals with AI at work.
Each module ends with a knowledge check with instant feedback. To earn the certificate, you complete all lessons and score at least 80 percent on each knowledge check. You finish with a short assignment: your own AI checklist for your work. On completion you receive a certificate with a verification code from LearnLLM.
Want more depth, with practical assignments based on your own work, privacy and high risk, AI agents and a final test? Then choose the full AI Literacy course, which takes 8 hours.
